Another 7-2 in the showcase challenge, worse breakers than last time so I ended up 19th. Frustrating that I keep losing early rounds and then going on a run after that!

Great post and I can't recommend this deck highly enough (4 trophies and counting!). Jamie as always does a really good job of concisely and accurately spelling out the nuances of how this list is put together and the ways it's different from the BW shell I've been playing so much of until recently.

14-1 in matches and back to back trophies with this list, all credit to @jamiewvh.bsky.social for creating this monster. Should be -1 Faerie +1 MBT in the board to match his choices, I tend not to like MBT but I think it's probably better.

this is a letter to the editor from a high school track runner who came in second to a trans girl in a race. her state house rep in maine started talking about it. so she wrote this: www.pressherald.com/2025/05/14/r...

Rep. Laurel Libby, R-Auburn, recently used my second-place finish in the 1,600-meter run, and that of my teammate in the 800-meter run, to malign Soren Stark-Chessa, the trans-identified athlete who finished first.

One of the reasons I chose to run cross-country and track is the community: Teammates cheering each other on, athletes from different schools coming together, and the fact that personal improvement is valued as much as, if not more than, the place we finish.

Last Friday, I ran the fastest 1,600-meter race I have ever run in middle school or high school track and earned varsity status by my school’s standards. I am extremely proud of the effort I put into the race and the time that I achieved. The fact that someone else finished in front of me didn’t diminish the happiness I felt after finishing that race. I don’t feel like first place was taken from me. Instead, I feel like a happy day was turned ugly by a bully who is using children to make political points.

We are all just kids trying to make our way through high school. Participating in sports is the highlight of high school for some kids. No one was harmed by Soren’s participation in the girls’ track meet, but we are all harmed by the hateful rhetoric of bullies, like Rep. Libby, who want to take sports away from some kids just because of who they are.
